Target registry - not like the others

I know Target gets a lot of hate on here, so I wanted to share with you my experience.  My shower was a few days ago and I went on Sunday to return some things - all duplicates - some with gift receipts, some without.  I had zero problem returning anything.  In fact, aside from those few weeks a couple of months ago when they were redesigning the website, I've had no issues.  So, target's not all bad!

    I agree, I did not have any issues returning anything.  I only registered there, because I heard BRU could be hard to deal with.

    Glad it was easy for you, and I hope you had a good shower!

    I returned something to BRU today and they were fine. They just only seem to give merchandise credit, even if you have a gift receipt. It was Ok by me, since I was there to pick up a few things on my registry. :)

    I agree! I love Target sooo much!!! We never had any problems with our wedding registry and I plan to use them for this baby shower.

    I'm wondering if it is a state by state thing or certain items?  I'm in CA and when I went to do a return for a gift that didn't have a receipt they told me I couldn't return it for merchandise credit even because it was over their maximum $50 a year per person policy.  The only thing I would be allowed to do is exchange it within the same section of merchandise.  The only thing I can think of is that the items I were returning were quasi-seasonal and baby items wouldn't be?

    I think I'm going to wander over to customer service to get this clarified now!

    My sister had a terrible time returning stuff to BRU, they told her she had reached her "limit" of returnable gifts from her registry.  They had her present her driver's license so they could track it to a tee.

    That is good to know. I think it depends on who you get at customer service sometimes. My Target is always great and I am definitely going to register there.

    Every place has its good and bad points IMO. Glad to see someone showing Target some love! I have an in-store registry with them synced with my MyRegistry.com registry and it's been great!
